Hey all,
In last weeks Exploring (May 17, 2022, at the setting out of the company from Rivendell) Corey asked if Tolkien describes stars as "burning". There was an instance just a little earlier in The Ring Goes South:
"But low in the South one star shone red. Every night, as the Moon waned again, it shone brighter and brighter. Frodo could see it from his window, deep in the heavens, burning like a watchful eye that glared above the trees on the brink of the valley."
